El Puerquito Express

This place is awesome for what it is. I’m in love with the breakfast burritos. It’s a must try especially the chorizo. It’s located in a gas station but they are delicious

Who knew a restaurant in a gas station would be so good? I happened to be in the area and needed gas. I’ve seen this restaurant a few times but was a little leery. I was so wrong. I had the red chilaquiles. Came with rice and beans. The rice was delicious, beans perfect and chilaquiles were exactly how they should be. I look forward to trying other items on their menu. The gentleman who took my order was super friendly and I know I will be telling others about this location.

Pensé que la comida iba a estar rica, pero realmente decepcionante. Pudimos un molcajete de pollo y otro de carne y el arroz todo hecho bola, creo que estaba hecho del día anterior. La carne desabrida y mal asada e igual el pollo. Y para colmar las tortillas hasta elásticas de mal calentadas. Yo no vuelvo a este lugar. Ojo, y muchas moscas también.

Super friendly staff. Not a great location but the food makes up for that. I had a veggie burro and a fresh pressed juice. Both were wonderful. It IS attached to a gas station so not a date spot but for a quick Mex treat this is a win!

As soon as you walk into this place you might think that the food will not be as good but the tacos amazing, authentic Mexican tacos. Highly recommended
The prices are very fair, the quality was good.

My favorite are the breakfast burritos in the morning, or the tamales de puerco. Every morning is my daily routine.

I’ve driven past this place countless times and have always been curious to try it. It looks sketchy from the outside but I was surprised when I walked in. It’s connected to the gas station but they have a nice little area for the restaurant.
The tables were clean and the staff working there were really nice. I ordered a carnitas burrito as well as a taco al pastor and a taco de chorizo. The burrito was good, the carnitas had good flavor. The burrito came with a side of tortilla chips that looked homemade so I was excited to eat them but was disappointed as they were a little stale. The taco al pastor was just ok. The taco de chorizo was pretty good as well.
They allow you to eat first and then you can pay when you finish. There was nothing super impressive about the place, but it was a good quick lunch.

Great food, awesome service and a little pig attached to the restroom key! What else can I ask for?!

Real. Bomb. Mexican Food. Every thing is good here. The carne asada is soo good. The chilaquiles are super bomb, but real spicy. Their salsas are all good, and vary in spiciness. Their beans are good, which I think is important at a Mexican restaurant. Looks can be deceiving because this spot is at a gas station, but it’s off the chain

This corner is a mess. A busy gas station with a large mini-​mart and a restaurant off to the side, with a recycling center packed into a corner and if you’re lucky and you arrive on Mexican Mother’s Day a pop-​up florists shop nearly blocking the door.
I fully expected the food to be as forgettable as you’d imagine.
And I could not have possibly been more wrong.
The carne asada, al pastor and the chorizo… were… perfect. The kind of meal that needs no addition, no improvement. It was handed to me in it’s perfected state for me to enjoy immediately. I sat there stunned. Moaning and grinning and groaning as I considered another 3 tacos.
You have no right to expect anything this flavorful and this delicious in a location as humble as this.
And that my friends is the joy of exploration.
Get out there.
